Shopify Has Declared War on The Firearms Industry!

A recent press release from Franklin Armory states that Shopify has updated their AUP (Acceptable Use policy) more specifically the”Restricted Items” in regards to firearms and firearms related parts. The changes basically copy California’s strict gun laws. Hundreds if not thousands within the firearms industry will be forced to find a new E-commerce solution. While some businesses websites have been untouched some have already been shut down even though it clearly violates their contract. “The firearms industry is under an unprecedented attack from the leading facilitators of interstate commerce that deny legitimate firearm businesses access to important structural supports of modern business.” Counsel for Franklin Armory®, Jason Davis, stated.

Leleux also added, “We have invested more than $100,000 in the development of our Shopify store, which will disappear once these policies go into effect,”
